At dentsu, we drive growth that matters - for our people, our clients, and the industry. Inspired by Sanpo Yoshi, we’re focused on doing good for business, society, and each other. 

In Australia, we’re building something powerful: one team with one ambition - to become the most potent media force in the market, known for bold thinking and standout work. 

We don’t just work for our clients, we build with them. We challenge, partner, and create lasting, growth-driven relationships. 

We think like challengers, act like owners, and are here to set a new standard. 

We’ve just landed one of the most exciting new partnerships in market - working with a leading sports and entertainment brand that connects millions of Australians to sport, racing and digital experiences.  

It’s a high-profile, fast-moving and career-defining account, where media, data and innovation come together to drive standout work.

The Role 

Be the driving force behind a major client partnership - owning the day-to-day, leading senior relationships, and keeping the energy high across both team and client. 

This is where strategy meets action. You’ll shape campaigns, steer always-on activity, and turn great thinking into work that lands. 

We’re looking for someone who brings spark and authority - someone who can rally a team, challenge a client, and keep everything moving forward with confidence and momentum. 

Key Accountabilities: 

• Set the tone for the team, leading with intent, clarity, and a strong sense of ownership 

• Build influential senior relationships, earning trust through perspective, not just delivery 

• Shape end-to-end media thinking, bringing together strategy, planning, and ideas that move the needle 

• Translate complexity into clear, compelling channel approaches grounded in insight 

• Champion work that is both effective and distinctive, with a focus on quality over volume 

• Orchestrate collaboration across teams to ensure every piece of output feels connected and considered 

• Maintain rigour in how work gets done, with a disciplined approach to workflow, timing, and detail 

• Identify where value can be created and act on it, expanding the impact of the partnership 

What You Will Bring:  

• A deep grasp of the Australian media landscape and how to make it work harder 

• Strong background in agency landscape, with strong instincts across planning, client leadership, and delivery 

• The ability to lead from the front - guiding teams, influencing stakeholders, and owning outcomes 

• Confidence to build real client trust, becoming a go-to voice, not just a point of contact 

• Comfort in fast-moving environments where priorities shift and the stakes stay high 

• A sharp eye for detail, with the discipline needed to navigate complex or regulated categories 

• A collaborative mindset, bringing together in-house and agency teams into one seamless approach 

• Curiosity and ambition to push the work, elevate thinking, and make a real mark on a new piece of business 

What’s in it for you: 

• Real flexibility to work when and where you feel most productive  

• The opportunity to give back with dedicated volunteer leave and our whole-company event, One Day for Change 

• 5 weeks annual leave after 2 years of service and 3 whole company Wellness days off per year for you to switch off and take your day, your way 

• Career Development and Learning & Development opportunities, including access to our global online dentsu University
